New Ice Cream Bunch
I think JoeReal will find this interesting. Remember my Ice Cream that was just pushing a paddle when you came by?
Well here she is this morning - moving right along. Hope I have time to mature the fruit before first frost. Mike |

Wow that is fast! I hope it will have harvestable sized fruits before the first frost.

Re: New Ice Cream Bunch
Super pic, Mike. Can I ask what the flowering height is? I've got a couple of plants, myself, here in the UK and was wondering when they'll out grow my conservatory. Thanks.

Re: New Ice Cream Bunch
The parent plants of my Ice Creams have very blue-ish fruit. Will yours turn blue later?

Re: New Ice Cream Bunch
My Ice Creams bloom at 11-12ft Trunk + leaves.
The do have a somewhat Blueish Hue when compared to other vatieties that I have. But, hands down Raja Puri is a tastier fruit. Mike |

Re: New Ice Cream Bunch
Where are you located? Some of us don't know. I thought you were here in GA with me but that might have been someone else.

Re: New Ice Cream Bunch
Yeah, it would sure be nice if everyone would fill in the LOCATION part of their profile. Someone offers a plant for sale or trade and you have to ask where they are. I promise I won't sneak over at night and steal all your nanners.
